If it's swollon you can crush up a TINY bit of iburprophine and water and use a q-tip to help the swelling or just pop a few. Ice will help too.

Slip..you mean a labret? be careful with self-done peircings, if you're gonna do 'em please order needles offline or off ebay and steralize everything really good especially the jewelry.
yeah, labret... and it was done myself lol but i'm not an idiot... peircings are able to cause serious injury just with a dirty needle... i'm well aware of this...

first i soak everything in alcohol for about five minutes, then boil it (double protection, of course i don't do alcohol last cuz that coudl cause extra pain and what not...) and everything stays as possibly sterile as i can get it...

i used to peirce my lip just to show off... my wife didn't believe i could do it when we first got back together (few years prior we had been together for 11 months, and i nearly passed out from geting my ear peirced.. i had a real phobia of needles) lol and i told her and she didn't believe me... so what'd i do? stuck a needle through my lip without flinching....

if i get it done this time tho, i'ma go to a professional... for reasons i can't mention really (i'll just say i had to have a certain drug to be able to do it... so i didn't freak out and have a panic attack... i'm sure you can put 2 and 2 together, but i can't get my hands on it anymore, so i'ts gonna have to be professional... a saftey pin isn't exactly sharp enough to go fast... it's about a minute long process juts to get the needle through)
